softenedthe sky whispers,
ribbons of crystalline quiet,
same shade as the angel dust
you shivered every time we were
alone.

in the darkness, we were
sorry birds searching for
open dawns. you, the
swan, me, the
raven,
black as night and
just as hopeful.

and there were poems
written in your skin, universes
blooming in your hands; your eyes
were a December sunrise saving me
from any sleep.

I’ve decided that
people are a composition of
all their greatest memories—and you,
you were always the most
beautiful piece of
me.

Two SoulsCould I touch a silent thought?
Could I know the colour of a word?
Could I hear the universe full of stars?
Could I hold the sea in my arms?
Could I stroke your voice?
Could I live in your heart?

A song never sung
A paper never drawn
A game never won
A man never loved

A flower that moves
A bird on my hair
A tree always blue
Spring
one love
two souls
my world
and you.

AirI want to lose myself
in an illogical need
for love.

I want to remember
to forget
how to breathe.

What is Air
if not you?

Pull Me ClosePull me close
Hold me tight
Tell me silently
That it’ll be alright

‘Cause when you’re near
I feel my heart beating,
When I see you
I feel alive,
When you hold me
I know it’s OK,
And I revel in feeling
The sound of you breathing
With your heart right next
To mine.

The Mosaic and The Wanderer.Yes this whole has been beaten down, broken now in decrepitude.
Scattered, thrown here or there by wanders kicking loose pebbles.
A stranger strolls and sees a stone to keep for his own collection.
He didn't hear the rubble cry as another part of them is stolen.

That was the day the sky turn gray with a storm of unknown magnitude.
Flooding rain washed what pieces remained into a shallow puddle.
In sediment they settled, put back together by this muddy concoction.
As the day exsiccates a mosaic is made and a soul has been awakened.
A woman rises from the sand to search for a man, and the part of her he's taken.

He loves to stroll and walk alone, his thought always so bestrewed.
Wander, meander where time doesn't matter. He's tired of a constant dribble.
Remembering the trinket he reaches in his pocket, and is startled with a pulsing motion.
Pulling out hi

Lesbian first kiss~laying together, on the bed.
Not touching, I go closer in
Snuggling into you a bit
I play with your cheek,
you play with my hair

I go closer and snuggle..
This time my head
is gently on your shoulder
You snuggle back into my neck
Looking at your face, then your eyes
Your eyes are looking at my lips
I gently grab your chin and lift

I can see your face in perfect view,
you get scared and look down..
I reassure you with a hug.
Look back into your eyes
grab your chin and kiss..

I can feel our lips tremble,
frightened; wanting more
Slowly but gently kissing
explosions of emotions
Beams of sweat on palms
We part away for a second

We kiss again with more confidence
touching each others bodies
stroking slowly, at each others curve

I LoveDear Lover,

I love what we have,
And not what we need,
Or should be:

Strong,

Whole,

Or perfect.

I love the way we function,
When we're nearly dead,
The way you:

Hit me,

Scream,

Or punch.

I love the way my heart thuds,
When I relinquish the sweet air
In exchange for:

Your breath,

Your toxic fumes,

And I choke.

I love it,
I love it,
I love you.

Sincerely, the Heartbroken

Condemned AloneI always fail in love;
No matter the man I'm with,
He will leave eventually.

My heart rarely smiles
Ripped apart like a curtain
Of memories that
Fades with morning light.

And if I put my trust in you,
Will I regret it, only time will know.

Inside, I seethe
In rage, crying.
Why am I built
To spend a
Lonely eternity?

I'm not sure what to believe;
All these years exposed to lies,
I am filled with bitterness.

I am their puppet;
Strings attached,
They reduce me to worthlessness
Incapable to thrive.

Too scared to leap beyond the moon
Where lovers reside in harmony.

Inside, I seethe
In rage, crying.
Why am I built
To spend a
Lonely eternity?

~Love~Love is like power
its strong but can only last so long...

Many people believe there is a red string connected with your soul mate
But strings can snap eventually...

Golden hearts connected together.
Then to rust and break...

love can make you happy and positive
but also sad and negative
very regretful too...

But pay close attention, you'll only get this once.
Pick your partner carefully.
They may just pick your forever..

Desirable SweetnessSkin is so soft so sweet, for it melts in my mouth like chocolate, it makes me wonder if you have ever

Been in love before, for I am eager to know if anyone else has been able to taste your desirable churned

Sweetness, for it makes me quite jealous for someone else has touched you first, seeing your hidden

Away treasures when hearts flourish and beat as one, as the lights dim to see such gloomed pleased

Eyes in an embowered place, in which empowers the sweet aroma of the occasion, such sweetness

Haunts my very soul, and has relished in the faery power of my unreflecting love……

Snapshots of usthe grass doesn’t grow here;
it’s all picket fences and five millimetre lawns
but ours is a jungle, guarded by thorns
as we entwine, anchoring each other
sunshine bathed and blurry
with Narnia tucked behind the beehive

still we’d rather be nomadic than settle
(we are blinkered but bolting)
and smoke and mirrors have more substance than
this hushed hunting for the other shoe
and the lipstick stains on your collar

it feels a little incestuous
but we chose the second circle
and dark matter is a time-bomb, ticking
so I sink into you again (and again)
rooting for salvation beneath your husk
and hoping we’ll find right

rippleshow many ripples you can cause
in the ocean of someone's heart,
each person has a tidal system they must abide and sometimes,
(even though you know better than to fight the waves)
you can't help but fool yourself into thinking
you can dive a little deeper.
(even though you're running out of air already)

and i am already becoming an expert in
clasping my hands together just right
so that it feels like someone else's fingers
interlaced with mine,

i know how to drape one leg over the other
to make it seem as though it's your ankle touching my foot
i press my back to the pillow beside me,
pretend its more than
just my body warmth heati

That Thing Called LoveA moment
A kiss
This feeling
A wish

A gesture
A touch
These feelings
Too much

Descriptions
Depictions
No words
Can be written

This love
A thought
This knowing
Is enough

Star-kissed SpineShe has this air about her
that I don't quite understand.
It's as if her spine is the night sky,
caressing the heavenly bodies
of the planets on her skin.
Ivory skin,
like that of a porcelain doll.
She is fishnet and lace,
black and white,
and all the in-betweens.
I'll take her star-kissed spine
and she can have my battered rib cage,
my sore, slow heart
if only she'll take them.

A girl walked into town.A girl walked into town.
Silent and new, she had no place.
No familiar faces shone
upon her silent shores of
nervous indifference.
Friends, they told her.
You've got to get some friends.
As if, she scoffed, it was that easy.
No, this newness was good but it was
Lonely.
And each new branch
she tried to grow, to reach out,
hurt with the growing pains of
childhood.
Uncomfortable.
Burning.
An introvert doormat in a callous world.
But how could it be so enticing?
So welcoming?
Late August, a friend blew in
from the dust.
Inviting. She wasn't too keen on
trying to grow new branches again.
But this one held the promise of fruit.
Sweet and cool to

Schadenfreude~Schadenfreude~

Like a child afraid of his own shadow, I'm too scared to look behind me. Startled by a soft sigh, I am calmed as I am reminded. When the clock strikes midnight, you're still here with the intention to make the most of your time, making your real intentions far less conspicuous.

Darkness fills those starry eyes, shimmering with a warm splendor, and it feels like the evening has awakened the rapture as we ceremoniously look into eachother's eyes, each of us questioning the other's sincerity.

This feeling is unique, eminent fairness whilst trying to determine how much we undoubtedly depend on eachother, we both know that it sh

Restless Night~Restless Night~

The holes in your heart whistle as the wind sweeps
through, with a breeze in the restless night.

The murmurs get softer, it feels as though it could
stop at any moment.

The tossing and turning next to me, I miss. Your
smile was the most comforting of all.

I hold on to the piece of you that remains, It's all that
I have left, but like everything else, it will eventually fade.

As I lay, trying not to fall apart, crying in my sleep.
Love in the restless night, a sad song in your eyes.

Something sacred lingers here, in the scent of your cologne.

Taken before your time, young and adventurous, lost in your
dreams of

The End Times~The End Times~

Everything dies in slow motion, but we don't believe in god.

Say a prayer for the broken hearted, perhaps not all hope is lost,
fizziling out with the dying shock.

In the end, we will remember you, the way you used to be,
and the way you are now.

Once green with envy, the world knew nothing, and laughed
at your defiant strategy. In the likeness of genius, you were a fool.

The drugs went out of style and so did your creativity. Or at least, from the looks of it, you have alot on your mind.

You try not to ask questions, but the choices you made, only lead to more questions.

You hide your one conflictions, but little di

Lesser Being~Lesser Being~

You get more beautiful every time you look at me.

Your eyes, the most beautiful eyes, are always filled with tears.

I want to be near you. My strength and character are put to the test,
every time I see you.

I feel rotten. You reach into me and pull out everything that I try to hide.

I want to play the blame game, for everything that I am. The closer I get,
the farther away it seems.

I hold you close, like a child does her doll, and I'm battling the demons inside.
I'm often confused but one thing is always certain.

The way you smile. The way your skin feels. Only a fool would ignore such
perfection.

I lose my breat

Love Me Please~Love Me Please~

The memories are born again, they mend the mind blocked
by the one who tried to rationalize their fantasies.

The way it should be; I sacrifice to feed your habits.
It's not that I mind, so I will not scorn you for it.

I can want you to stop. But you can never get what you want
in this world. Not when it's so out of reach.

I want you to love me, like you've never loved before.
My father, my brother, my son. We will show the world, the beauty
within the filth.

I know what you feel. Maybe, I'm just bitter and naive.
I can't help but wish that I could go back and do things differently.

The regret, it haunts you,

I'll Be~I'll Be~

I'm not leaving you! You didn't leave me when I needed you.
I'll be right here by your side. Until you come out of this coma.

I can't let go of you now. We've been through so little together,
and have already grown so close.

Life and death are hard to cope with, and I promise you,
that before we leave this earth, you will find peace with me.

It's so hard to breathe with this pain in my throat,
I caught myself crying, looking at the stains on your shirt.

I'll be right here when you need me.
I'll love you for as long as I can, for as long as you need me to.

Did we miss something? When we met that day?
Was it all part

Perpetual Warfare

~Perpetual Warfare~

Do you remember that feeling?
Overwhelming confusion and calm.
The heavy breathing and your heartbeat,
so loud that it was all you could hear.

I remember chasing the first smile,
just to be sure of what I had seen.
Fresh pictures that I could dream of after a few years.
Is this the force that can capture hearts one by one?

When messing with the alien feelings,
I could not understand the meaning of the different sounds and voices.
You think you're better than that, but I do not.
You're always one word away from cracking.

Am I able to go far enough into the darkness that surrounds you?
My heart can steer my eyes but my mind knows that it's reluctant.
Rubbing my hands together, peeling dry blood.

It wouldn't be enough to wash our sins away with water.
Repentance is only the early stages of the battle,
when you're not there, I want to hide.
Pathetic, to me, is having my ear to the door.

I'm trapped in my mind now that you're gone.
The gazing shame of lust in the wake of death.

I will not let the past steal my victory from me.
I am one of the bodies going to a place we've always dreamed of,
and bury my name in ruins, alone.

I have no reason to hide.

This is for everything that I feel right now. For all that I am, I never was a malicious person. I'm now learning to be completely alone again. See it, as you will, the message can be interpreted in many ways.
